Climate Action Network Canada responds to the outcome of the G7 Summit

“Today was the latest example of the tremendous support countries and communities worldwide have invested in the Paris Agreement. The world knows that a prosperous future is one run on clean energy. Communities, businesses, Canada and other countries will continue to take action on climate and work to ensure a fair transition for people entering the new economy, because these actions serve national and regional interests as much today as they did seven months ago.

Canada has made significant political investments in decarbonization in the last two years, and given today’s outcome we expect Canada to bring climate leadership to the forefront of its agenda as 2018 G7 President.” – Catherine Abreu, Climate Action Network Canada
